I have been using cloud network for over a year and have not experienced this before. I optimize my EA, on (15-17) assets every week and have been doing so since January. Last night, when I started my optimizations, the times were in the hours not minutes, checked the cloud agents and it was only using 1 cloud agent. Then it would go up to 5 then back to 1. I restarted my network, restarted MT5, removed and re added my EA. Thought it was a cloud network issue on the MT5 side for the night so I gave up went to bed. Got up this morning and it is still only letting me use 1-5 agents.
I tried to back test with the generic MT5 expert advisors that come stock with the program and it is also doing the same thing.
Anyone had this happen before? What is going on? Please help.
I reoptimize every week for my EA. Normally, i get 256-450 cores from the cloud network to help and I can complete each test in approximately 3-4 minutes. Last night it was only allowing between 5-10 agents. I restarted computer, removed and re added the EA, my account balance has PLENTY of money in it. Removed my local network helpers. I removed my EA and tried running the stock EA that is built into MT5, same problem. I have disabled each bank, EUR 1, EUR2 etc etc and tried to use them 1 at a time, same issue.
Anyone know what is happening? Been using cloud network for since Jan 23 and never had this happen before.
